Yeah, Eric Dier thinking he’s Pirlo is getting quite tiring. He’s just a big defensive brute. He needs to just stick to that role. With the ball he is actually very poor. Having both him and Sissoko in the same midfield is horrible to watch - we simply can’t pass the ball well when they’re both on.

We missed eriksen, No one really performed well, maybe davies, vorm and Jan were ok, son was quiet and Dele was sloppy on the ball. Either team could have won it today. Wanyama looked good when he came on, Lamela was slow to pass and counter on few chances he did get, i like his fight and i know he needs a run in the team before you can really judge him.

The only good thing is that it's a while to our next EPL match, because I few will fall ill over the next few days. I hope they haven't got 'flu, because that will be very bad news indeed.

Thanks, mate.

Although I'd say Poch is not completely blameless, as Lamela for Eriksen is a no brainier and to sacrifice Son, who is capable of creating magic on an off day, like the West Ham game, is a real tough one to take - especially considering how bad Dier and Alli were today.

Lets hope we can get at least a deal for a winger wrapped up this window. I would go as far to say we could do with two, Moura and Malcom!

I really thought Son had finally earned the right to not be hooked first, no matter how quiet he is he's more dangerous than everyone in our side bar Kane.

Lamela can do more in half an hour than Sissoko can do in a whole game.

I think this whole Sissoko situation is just all a bit sad. :(

I can easily make my case, because I don't go into a game thinking that any mistake Sissoko makes is the end of the world. I also watch the team and not one player. You, on the other hand, don't.
Nope, I'd be happy to talk about all of the players performances today. But not with someone that resorts to insults and assumptions when somebody has a different view.

I think Sweetsman got a Sissoko tattoo on his left butt cheek. He can't debate. He can't even explain what Sissoko does.
No, it's easy to know why he plays and why the manager trusts him. I just don't see the point debating with likes of you, because it's like talking to potted plants.

Well he didn’t today. Lamela held on to the ball far too long and messed up a fair few good breaks late in the game. Sissoko was one of our better players today imo
